McCONNEL MULTIDRIVE M380‐4 & M420‐4 Multidrive Plus+1 Steering Controller Calibration Process 4 Wheel Steer Rear steering setup If any adjustments to the steering are made or system components replaced it may be necessary to reset the steering center points so the system knows where the straight ahead positions are on both axles. - Page 108 McCONNEL MULTIDRIVE M380‐4 & M420‐4 Switch the ignition back on and go to the steering setup page. Storing midpoints The sensors may need adjusting to ensure that the electrical position is within the correct range. You can see on the setup page what the stored sensor midpoints are set at in the steering controller and what the current actual readings are.
- Page 109 McCONNEL MULTIDRIVE M380‐4 & M420‐4 Sensor adjustment Should the current midpoints be out of the range of 2400 and 2600mv it is necessary to adjust the sensor position to bring it within range. It is easier with an assistant to do this so one person can watch the display whilst the other adjusts the sensor.
